Ibis La Mesa Project Description

Ibis La Mesa is a 72-unit community that blends townhome and apartment-style living. Good and Roberts, an affiliate of C.W. Driver Companies, topped out on the project being built for Sea Anemone, LLC. Ibis La Mesa will deliver a total of eight buildings – comprised of four 4 townhouse-style buildings (30 units), 3 stacked-flat apartment buildings (22 units), and an affordable housing building comprised of 10 units.

The $29 million project will bring living arrangements for a variety of demographics including working professionals and young families. Good and Roberts built Ibis La Mesa on top of a site that previously belonged to a former medical office building. It is also located in the heart of the community with easy access to Downtown La Mesa, The Grossmont Center, I-8, Route 125, and Route 94.

Good & Roberts is completing all eight buildings within phases. The first of 8 buildings will be completed in June (this is the affordable housing building), the next 3 buildings will be completed in phase II (the remainder of the stacked flats), and the (4) townhouse buildings will be turned over one at a time with the final building being completed in October.

Several unit types were constructed to suit the needs of different demographics. The multifamily units will be a blend of studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom layouts. The townhomes will consist of 25 two-bedroom units and 5 live/work units. The live work units will be three stories tall with the integration of flexible spaces on the first and third floors to support all types of work – ranging from home offices to creative studios.

The 2.5-acre site provides expansive views of La Mesa Hillsides and Mount Helix, providing a tranquil environment. While the buildings integrate seamlessly with the community, they deliver a modern and unique feel through contemporary roof forms and layered facade articulation to reduce massing and create visual movement. Other notable materials include plaster + stucco finishes, large-format siding panels, Hardie lap siding and sheet panels to deliver a distinctive yet comfortable living environment.

Notable amenities include landscaped courtyards, interconnected pedestrian walkways, shaded gathering areas, BBQ and outdoor seating, community planter boxes, and garden beds.
